Think of South Sudan this Giving Tuesday!

Unsafe water claims more lives in Africa than all forms of violence combined. You can help change that.

Every well we build serves up to 5,000 people, bringing clean water, health, and hope. Thanks to your support, we’ve built 10 wells so far, and we’re raising funds for our 11th well.

On Friday, November 14th, several Wells for Hope for South Sudan board members attended the funeral service for WFHFSS co-founder Estelle Ford-Williamson. It was held on a beautiful morning at St. Peter's Catholic Church in Beaufort, SC near St. Helena Island, Estelle's beloved Lowcountry home. We presented to Estelle's husband Richard this framed copy of the tile that we plan to embed on our next well which will be dedicated to Estelle.
